Local Loony “Life Coach” Now An Expert Gardener

Boy, I am going to LOVE watching this fail spectacularly. Actually, I doubt it will ever get off the ground, but one can hope!

What am I talking about? The latest brain-child of our local locust from Ohio-by-way-of-Austin (and stepmom of Austin libtard Stephanie Fitzharris)….none other than Janet Yoder Kraeff-Crozier-(Thunberg).

She even got a write-up in the Lampasas Dispatch!! [page 2 from 9/1/20]

The name should ring a bell. She’s one of our village idiots who never stops crusading for an expensive and useless recycling program here in Lampasas. She even suggested that the City have giant carbon-spewing garbage trucks travel all over and pick up the trash recyclables because she is apparently too lazy to drive her old crappy jars a few blocks to the City’s current recycling drop off.

She believes in numerology, astrology, psychics and is a failed ‘life coach’. She also thinks autistic children are clairvoyant.

Seriously.

With THOSE credentials, why should we doubt her abilities as a Master Gardener who is going to use City property (and presumably tens of thousands of gallons of free City water) to start a “Community Garden” where she can nag you all about the benefits of healthy eating?

While listening to her prattle on at a City council meeting (go to the 46 minute mark) for about 5 minutes, I finally heard Mike White ask the question that anyone with a brain would have thought of right away:

“How do you plan to contend with the deer?”

BAHAHAHAHAHA. I love it. Mike – you crack me up all the time with your common-sense questions and observations while dealing with morons. Her answer?

“We have a six-foot fence”

Anybody care to break the bad news to her?

Oh Janet. Your feeble brain and libtard schemes endlessly enrage and amuse me at the same time. The Master Gardener was content with a six foot “deer fence”! LOL!

The hare-brained scheme as she described it is going to run her at LEAST $10,000 in start-up funds. Probably more. She has apparently gone begging to the Feds for a grant (just like Mandy Walsh!) but she hasn’t gotten very far. If she can convince some private-sector dummy to hand her $10,000, then more power to her. But I sure as hell hope City council isn’t thinking of giving this nut job a single red cent. It will be a colossal waste, and I’ll howl about it even more than the Azbell Electronics bungling.

I suspect it will look at a LOT like the ‘farm’ the idiot Marxists in the Seattle CHAZ zone built and will last about as long….

Seattle's Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone Is No Christiania | National Review
When Marxist retards farm…

I can think of AT LEAST 10 problems with her plan – but I hesitate to write them up here, as I’d prefer to watch this all blow up on its own and not give her any help. But hey, they DO have NINE board members AND a grant writer, according to her. Grab that ‘free’ government money, lady!

Hey, I know: why don’t you ask your annoying step-daughter Stephanie Fitzharris for the money! She’s all about virtue signaling and says that money is no object when it comes to trying to sic a lawyer on me for “slander”. She LOVES to humblebrag on Facebook about her huge house in Lake Travis and her three-week vacations to California and meeting her “neighbor” Owen Wilson. You should ask HER for the dough!

How about it, potato-headed Steph? I think you should cut a check to dear old mom and help her get this doomed disaster project off the ground! I need something to amuse me, and going down to the old volleyball courts to watch Janet make a go of it would provide me with endless entertainment.

Hey dummy: ‘slander’ is spoken. LIBEL is written. However, it’s not libel if it’s true. Go buy a dictionary, you potato headed clown.

It’s “only money”, right? LOL. A lot of rich wives who sit at home gazing at their navel and playing with their inner child talk that way. Why not be a pal and hand Crazy Janet ten grand or so?

More Garbage Covid Reporting

Are we STILL supposed to take this tripe seriously??

“About a month ago”? Gimme a frickin break! I know the government drones at the state level are lazy and stupid, but are we REALLY supposed to believe that these deaths just “fall through the cracks” for months at a time?

Bullshit.

This is “death harvesting” at its finest. Hospitals going back and re-coding any death they can find as “covid” to grab some of that free money from Uncle Sugar. Maybe this poor bastard had a “positive” test a month before he died and then had a completely unrelated stroke. Maybe he had 2 heart attacks two years ago, died from his third in August and then they decided they saw “covid-like symptoms” in him later to get the money. Who knows. The chicanery with Covid deaths knows no limits.

Don’t think it’s possible? Our OWN CITY COUNCIL and LEDC are doing the EXACT SAME THING applying for “covid funds” for their crappy business park so they can paper over 10 years of fiscal mismanagement. You don’t think the hospitals are doing the EXACT SAME THING?? If you are that naive, I’ve got a bridge to sell you.

All I know is that after Lampasas County “Fatality #6”, it all turned to crap. It’s been a bunch of “happened last month” and “we aren’t sure of the timeline” and “the patient was in another county” nonsense ever since then.

The “active cases” spikes are just as suspect. As I have covered here repeatedly, the PCR tests are amplified up to FORTY TIMES in Texas. The same PCR test that only identifies RNA fragments – NOT live virus. How many of these “active cases” feel perfectly fine and are NOT infectious but were forced into a test because someone in their family was also positive? I’m betting a LOT.

Getting a PCR hit at 30-40 amplification cycles and concluding someone “has covid” is like finding goose down in your pillow and concluding your house is infested with geese.

Local Ignoramus Whines About Supreme Court “Packing”

Packing? No, no, dear boy. It’s called “filling a vacancy” and it has been done since the beginning of our republic. Trump is president for FOUR years…not three – despite the best efforts of scumbags like Obama, Biden and Clinton to invalidate the 2016 election.

“Packing” is what the scumbags on the left are going to do if they get back in power. They cannot win so they change the rules. If the Marxists take over next year, watch for all SORTS of “packing”. They will expand the Supreme Court from nine justices to 11 or 13. They will push to give statehood to D.C. and Puerto Rico – thus adding more rabid liberal senators. Mark my words.

It occurs to me this all could have been avoided if the sickly, wrinkled, power-hungry gnome named “RBG” had just retired at ANY time during the 2008 to 2016 time period. But no. She just assumed Hillary would win, so she clung to power a little longer – like all the sociopaths in high office. If you want to cry and whine to somebody, go cry and whine to RBG’s corpse, you hipster doofus moron.

Not only do we owe the libtards NOTHING, we relish watching them choke on this confirmation. Payback is a bitch, and what a beautiful creature she is.

#NominateAndConfirm

** UPDATED 10/20** – Don’t take MY word for it. Take the word of Jonathan Turley…an ACTUAL constitutional scholar.

“It is logically and constitutionally absurd to call the filling of a vacancy on the Court as form of “court packing.” It does not increase the size of the Court and is done in complete conformity with the constitutional framework.”

City Hands Former Council Member “Greasy” Chris Harrison and Developer S2M2 $185,000 In City Funds For Brodie Estates

More developers grabbing more city dollars. Anyone shocked? You shouldn’t be. We already discussed how mansion owner Deorald Finney got HIS $72,000 gift from City taxpayers.

I’ve ranted about hypocrite “Greasy” Chris Harrison (former City council member) multiple times. HERE and HERE for instance.

Well, the City just cut old Greasy and S2M2 a $185,000 check last month. It sure pays to have friends (and former council buddies) on City council!

Link to City checks written on page 32 – lest some moron accuse me of “slander”

Just a quick reminder of what (massive hypocrite) Greasy Chris Harrison said back on 4/10/15 (page 11) when he was running for City council a second time:

The council candidate [Harrison] said he opposes tax abatements and other financial incentives to prospective businesses. He also said he was against city officials’ economic-development trips to California and a subsequent incentive agreement for a company that moved from California to Lampasas. “To me, it’s not the government’s place to fund private business,” Harrison said.

“The candidate said he learned from a grant program the City Council offered briefly in 2011. Under the program, which Harrison initially supported but later voted to repeal, small businesses that opened in Lampasas after a specified date were eligible for a grant of $5,000 from the city. Harrison said council members had good intentions but learned quickly there were problems with offering taxpayer money to businesses

So Greasy Chris Harrison was opposed to $5,000 grants but he and S2M2 gladly pilfer the taxpayer for $185,000. Lovely.

Here is a brief timeline of how the geniuses on City council went from DENYING S2M2 a $105,000 check as “too expensive” in May of 2019 to then handing over $185,000 last month – links to Dispatch articles are in brackets in case some moron accuses me of ‘slander’ again:

5/31/19 [page 5]: “The pond is estimated to cost $135,000, and McDonald said if he has it built, he will forego $75,000 he could have made had he turned the pond site into three residential lots. As a result, he asked the city to spend $105,000 on the pond – half of what he said it would cost S2M2 if the company sacrifices potential buildable space to create a drainage pond. Council members, however, said that cost is too high to justify for what they said would be minimal drainage improvements in the area. The council’s motion called for no city payment toward a detention pond.”

[McDonald failed to get the free stuff…so he sends in Greasy Chris three months later. Greasy used to sit on City council with the other Goldfish]

8/30/19 [page A4]: Lampasas company S2M2 Inc., represented at Monday’s meeting by Chris Harrison, is seeking city cost-sharing for the detention pond, which would occupy three lots the company otherwise could have used to build houses in its proposed Brodie Estates subdivision. S2M2 is asking the city to spend $125,000 toward the detention pond, Harrison said. That amount, he told city officials, is about half what the water detention structure will cost the company — when factoring in pond development expenses, the value of the three buildable lots the company will sacrifice and the profit that the sale of three houses could have generated. The pond is not required for Brodie Estates.

The mayor said city officials need to think again about a detention pond

[Now that former council buddy Harrison is asking, Mayor Talbert thinks they need to “think again”. Notice the cost has already jumped from $105,000 to $125,000. These wormy shits do this all the time.]

9/20/19 [page 4]: “the City committed to pay S2M2 a maximum of $150,000 for the company’s actual costs of surveying, engineering and building a rainwater detention pond in the subdivision. Council members have said the detention pond is not required to develop Brodie Estates.”

Harrison said developers requested city cost sharing because adding the detention pond will cause S2M2 to sacrifice three lots it otherwise could have used to build houses. On another item, the amended development agreement specifies that the city will reimburse S2M2 a maximum of $40,000 for engineering, easement acquisition, construction and materials for a water line loop.”

Incredible!!

The Seven Goldfish went from “NO, we won’t spend $105,000” to “we should rethink this” at $125,000 to “here is $150,000 PLUS another $40,000 for some water line stuff”

Genius negotiating on the part of Mayor Talbert and the other Goldfish. I guess the taxpaying saps should be thankful that they only got clipped for $185,000 when the maximum possible reimbursement was $190,000.

Gee thanks, S2M2 and Greasy Chris Harrison for leaving a few crumbs! Maybe they can take that $5,000 they “saved” and give it out to Wool & Vine as one of those business grants that Councilman Harrison was opposed to back in 2015. It would be a final bit of irony!

Here is a video of local developers looting City coffers with help from the wizards on City council:

Mayor Gets All Mathy.

Our mayor awkwardly tried to convey that Covid decisions are not just all about the math but also about feelings. That her “calculations” show (groan) that there is a 100% chance those who have passed away are missed by their loved ones.

Clearly, this is a dig at people like me who insist on doing cost benefit analysis of different courses of action during the “pandemic”.

I’m sure she’s very proud of her clever “percentages” segue and her conclusion that people missed their loved ones when they pass away. To which I say:

No kidding.

You know who else is 100% missed by their loved ones? The 2.7 million Americans who died last year of all those non-Covid causes. You know who else? The 2.7 million Americans who died the year before that.

The 7,500 Americans who died yesterday of all sorts of non-Covid causes are ALSO missed dearly by their sons and daughters and loved ones…as will be the 7,500 more that will pass away today.

This may come as a surprise to Mayor Talbert, but people have been dying in this world before March of this year. In fact, every person ever born eventually died – and they were mourned by their children and grandchildren and friends. Every person reading this will also die someday. People dying didn’t start in March of this year.

I would guess that between March 2019 and October 2019, probably 100 people died in Lampasas County. Including some tragically young adults in car accidents. Why did Mayor Talbert not get on Facebook and cry over each one of THEM? After all, THEY were all 100% missed by their loved ones too. Are those deaths < a Covid death? [a little math symbol there, Misti!]

When you are a LEADER in charge of millions (like Governor Abbott or Donald Trump) you most certainly DO have to strictly use math to do cost benefit analysis comparing one course of action to another and leave your emotions out of it.

If a 23-year-old woman is killed in a freak automobile accident, you don’t demand that the entire country “lock down” their cars and never drive again because “if it saves one life it is worth it”. That would be absolutely idiotic. Yet that also doesn’t automatically mean that we don’t feel for that poor mom and dad who just lost their daughter. It is terrible and tragic, but MATH and COMMON SENSE tell us that the rest of the world keeps on spinning. Why? Because to “lock down” cars and trucks would cause tens of millions of deaths from starvation alone as food couldn’t get from farm to table, to show just ONE obvious ‘COST’ of that ridiculous course of action.

When you start to realize the massive cost in lost life years from locking people down (suicides, overdoses, cancer screenings that didn’t happen, heart conditions and diabetes that weren’t treated, chemotherapy sessions missed, stroke evaluations that were missed) and compare them to “Covid deaths” – you will quickly start to realize that the cure was worse than the disease.

[German Minister Admits Lockdowns Will Kill More Than Covid-19 Does]

The indisputable fact of the matter is that MOST of the deaths in our county were elderly people who had other health issues and who were already far over the average life expectancy for a human born in, say, 1935. And while, YES, those people will be sorely missed by those close to them, the truth is that those people were going to fall victim to SOMETHING relatively soon anyways. Stroke. Pneumonia. Heart disease. That is a statistical fact (ugh – evil, callous math again).

Just because some of us don’t get on Facebook video and cry over every single death of a person we don’t know, doesn’t mean we don’t understand this fact and sympathize with the family left behind. But that is not how you make decisions as a leader.

I’m sorry the “math” works out this way, but I think almost everyone would agree that the death of a 25-year-old who kills himself over depression from being caged like an animal for 6 months and losing his job and live savings is FAR more tragic than the death of a 90-year-old, bedridden stroke victim. Who is to say the 90-year-old wasn’t alive this year only because of a mild flu season last year?

Math will help us answer all these questions and steer us in the correct direction.

While I appreciate that Mayor Talbert has a big heart and “feels” for every single death, none of that enters the equation when you are making decisions that are adversely affecting the lives of thousands/millions of other people who are still alive and trying to put food on the table.

The same exact “math” should be used with mask mandates. The math clearly tells us that kids under 20 are at practically ZERO risk of dying from Wuhan Flu and therefore masks are not needed in the schools. Math/statistics also proves that masks are useless anyways against aerosolized virus: every chart comparing mask mandate counties to non-mask mandate counties show this starkly. Math again tells us that there are MANY adverse effects to forced mask wearing – which we will see show up in the statistics eventually.

P.S. I will say I am delighted to see that Mayor Talbert is now cognizant of the existence of “math” at all. Too bad her realization comes NOW instead of years ago. She could have “calculated” that the cost of the $96,000 no-bid Azbell A/V system they bought for City council chambers was > (GREATER THAN) the $34,000 Broadcast Works bid that was on the table.

She might have also realized that the $128,400 RKJ elevator cost was > (GREATER THAN) the $96,000 Austin Elevator bid that was also on the table.

But there is hope! She can maybe still “calculate” that the $4 million they are trying to waste on the ‘business park’ is > (FAR GREATER THAN) any phantom benefits you are counting on from future “economic growth”.

Remember When All The Teachers And Students Were Gonna Die Of Covid?

It was only about 3 months ago. A large group of dummies were screaming bloody murder that the schools should stay closed. That we couldn’t go back to normal because of the extreme danger to kids and teachers…even though kids and young women are more likely to die in a car accident on the WAY to school that they are to die of the Wuhan Flu.

Many hundreds of people even kept their kids home and insisted on a costly and aggravating “remote learning” option that almost certainly will result in their kids being left behind the others academically.

Well, here we are over two months into the school year. Let’s look at all the death and destruction that took place in our schools:

Kline Whitis: The school for the youngest kids does NOT require masks. Ironically, the under-10-years-old cohort did the BEST of all the schools. TOTAL DAMAGE: As of yesterday, there are ZERO active cases, ONE kid has caught Covid and recovered and ZERO teachers or staff have been infected. ZERO DEATHS. I’ll repeat: ONE KID has caught and recovered from Covid in the ENTIRE SCHOOL….including staff.

Hannah Springs: ZERO active cases, TWO kids have caught the virus and recovered, ZERO active cases among the staff and THREE staff have already caught it and recovered. ZERO DEATHS.

Taylor Creek: here we have ONE staff member that caught Covid and recovered. ZERO kids. That’s right – in the entire school, there was ONE staff member and ZERO kids infected. ZERO DEATHS.

Lampasas Middle School: Zero active cases, TWO recovered students and ONE recovered staff. A grand total of THREE cases – fully recovered. ZERO DEATHS.

Lampasas High School: ONE active case as of yesterday…15 recovered (I’m guessing a large chunk of football players) yet ZERO staff have been infected this entire time. Funny that the school where they are DEFINITELY ALL WEARING MASKS is the one with the worst performance. Despite that: ZERO DEATHS.

So – in a school system of approximately 3,380 kids and maybe 500 staff where there are literally thousands of interactions per day over the course of two months, we have had a grand total of 20 kids who caught it and recovered OR about ONE HALF OF ONE PERCENT of the enrollment.

Among the staff, there were a grand total of five infections. Also less than 1%.

ZERO DEATHS.

The virus has an enormous weakness that we have thus far failed to exploit:

When about half the population has been infected (and recovered), we have achieved herd immunity. Those under 40 years of age make up over half the population, yet the virus is over 100 times LESS DEADLY to that portion of the population. Exploit this fact and defeat the virus!!

Dildo Who Spent 40 Years Transforming From Human To Humpback Whale Suddenly Worried About His Health

I found a new moron on Lampasas County Breaking News who immediately belongs up in the highest ranks of imbeciles with Haywood, Fitzharris and Johnson. His nom de plume is Hubert Humperdink…although a more fitting pseudonym would have been Hubert Humpback Whale.

His real name is Heath Bishop – and he is a morbidly obese 7-11 clerk.

I thought black was a slimming color?

Hubert is angry at you “plague rats” who want to breathe your “rotten lung air” all over him. He thinks you are selfish for not wanting to wear a dirty diaper over your mouth 10 hours a day. He cares about his health, as you can see from his photo ^^

Right on, Trenton!!

Hubert Humpback is right to be scared of Covid. He is morbidly obese. Morbid obesity is THE NUMBER ONE co-morbidity when it comes to dying with Covid.

How did Mister Humpback become this way? Did the Lard Fairy visit one night and turn Hubert into the grotesque apparition you see before you?

The face of George Costanza + the head of a glans penis + the body of a humpback = lady killer

Did you and I jam cupcakes, 64-oz sodas and Eve’s spaetzel wtih brown butter sauce into his mouth constantly over these last forty years? No. We did not. Mister Humpback did that to himself because he lacks willpower and self respect:

Not a plate. Not a bowl. Not even a trough. A BATHTUB. Talk about gluttony.

Humperdick thinks we are all ignorant rednecks for thinking masks aren’t worth a shit against a tiny aerosolized virus.

Doesn’t restrict breathing?? Wanna bet Humpback has a desk job and not a job waiting tables or stocking shelves?

Funny that Humpback thinks doctors are SUPER SMART but never listened to his own doctor over the last 40 years when he certainly told Humpback to drop about 120 pounds or he’d be in an early grave.

We ignorant rednecks understand intuitively that an aerosolized fart goes right through your underwear, your denim jeans and can easily be smelled by a person three feet away with or without a mask. That is because farts – like the coronavirus and cigarette smoke – are aerosolized and pass easily through fabrics. The egghead “genius” scientists are finally admitting the obvious:

CDC Now Admits Virus Is Airborne

Oh. You don’t say? Who woulda thunk it?

In short, Humperdick, if you are morbidly obese, slapping a mask on your face isn’t gonna help you. Get off the CDC website, take the mask off, and go outside to get some sunshine (vitamin D!) and take a walk, for crying out loud! America desperately needs to man up and stop acting like hysterical cowards.

No Wonder They Are Big On Cheese At Wool & Vine: The Owner Is A Rat.

First it was ratting out local restaurants. Now Julie Cain “Nurse Ratched” Landrum is ratting out HEB.

Lady, you need a hobby. Clearly, only having your lemonade stand open 3 days a week isn’t keeping you occupied enough. Maybe take a vacation. You could take that $3,000 in tax dollars that Mandy Clause gave you and take a nice long trip to North Korea.

What’s it gonna be?“, “Call it one way or another” – who in the hell died and made YOU pope? How about “stfu and mind your own business, you rat“? That’s MY suggestion in this situation.

Wash your hands! Eat your peas! Don’t run with scissors! Bobby is chewing gum in class!

I have zero doubt that Nurse Ratched was a Hall Monitor back in grade school. She’s probably the type who would be out after the bars close at 2am when the streets are absolutely empty, and stands there waiting for the “WALK” sign to light up despite there not being a car in sight for miles.

If you are SO concerned about catching a cold, please go to Amazon and spend $50 on a full body suit and leave the rest of us alone, you annoying loon.

I used to wonder how the Salem Witch Trials got started. What type of moron would lose all rational thinking and fall head first into hysteria. Now I know.

Trump Has Covid

Trump literally has every co-morbidity out there: old, fat and male. He’s already feeling better than I do with a Monday morning hangover. When he makes a full recovery, it will hopefully be the end of this Covid stupidity and we can all get on with life…

I Hope Deorald Finney Invites TJ Monroe and Chuck Williamson Over For The Mansion Warming Party!

You may recall developer Deorald Finney. He’s the one who asked City council for a bunch of free stuff for his Stone Valley development project of 67 new houses a year or two ago. I have ranted about him a few times on these pages.

He’s the guy who actually had the nerve to ask City council to waive pretty much every building fee they charge (loss of about $31,000 to City coffers) AND to provide free electrical hookups to each house – at a cost to the City of $72,000. Oh, and to hand over another $53,000 or so for other drainage/street stuff (3/29/19 front page).

City council nitwits TJ Monroe and Chuck Williamson voted to give him every single break he asked for (don’t forget that Chuck is up for re-election very soon!). They lost that vote 2-5.

Luckily, cooler heads prevailed and they only gave him everything he wanted MINUS waiving all building permits [5-2 vote – see Dispatch from 3/29/19 front page article]. Monroe and Williamson voted against the reduced package since they wanted to hand MORE free stuff to Finney.

I recall Mike White’s common-sense statement back in the 3/29/19 edition of the Dispatch (page 11): “If I’m building a house, I don’t get a fee waived”.

Bravo, sir. Monroe and Williamson don’t see it that way, apparently.

As early as July 17th, 2018 (page 10), Talbert was fine with handing out the $72,000 in candy. Her logic? The city would be willing to consider “doing the electric [infrastructure] at our cost because [it is] an enterprise for us; we do sell electric service.”

No shit? Then why does the City have a hookup fee at all for anybody?? Everyone else buys electric service too!

When Deorald was arguing for all the sweetheart deals, he said the houses would sell for between $150k and $180k (1/4/19 page 10):

“Finney estimated home prices would range from $150,000-$180,000”.

Hmmm. Weird, because one of them is currently listed at over $200,000 right now. Link here.

That $200k is THIRTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS MORE per house than the mid-point estimate he gave to the City. Multiply that by 67 houses and you are looking at over $2.3 million extra windfall dollars in Deorald’s pocket. Good thing the City handed him all that free shit. If they hadn’t done that, he may have been forced to live in a puny 5,000 square foot hovel….instead of the opulent mansion he is currently bragging about on Facebook:

Poor guy. Barely scraping by selling those Stone Valley houses. Without that $72,000 fee waiver from Misti and The Gang, he might have to live in a house WITHOUT corbels! The horror.

I sure hope City council gets invited over for the mansion warming party! Or maybe get invited on a trip to Hawaii or something. Anything to show his thanks for City council being such suckers with City money.

$72,000 buys some nice trips to Hawaii, doesn’t it??

Here is a video of developers grabbing City of Lampasas tax dollars over the last few years. If you look closely, you can see Deorald and “Greasy” Chris Harrison in there!
